62. Message

While the other nobles are talking to each other, Aria Allenar is alone tasting the wine. The others were not visible at all.

No matter how much it was, she was the daughter of a marquis. I thought I would exchange a simple greeting with the others, but my thoughts were unfounded.

She just casually looked around the banquet hall.

“Shione?”

I’m just checking Shione from time to time.

She definitely seems to have a good relationship with Siabel….

Maybe he was curious about my friend’s younger brother.

But again, there was a sense of checking too often, considering it was just an interest in a friend’s younger brother.

I told you to talk to Leona. It’s not like I’m attracting people’s attention by doing something weird.

I looked at Sione.

“Haa… ….”

Shione, who should have been talking to Leona by now, was sipping wine by herself.

Even in the midst of that, his gaze was fixed on Leona, and seeing her sigh at the end of her swaying pupils.

She seemed to be contemplating how to approach her and talk to her.

I’m just going to go and try to make a full statement. Frustrating, frustrating

Looking at Sione. Taking another sip of her wine, Sione turned her head this way.

When she realized that I was watching her, her eyes lit up like her puppies seeing their owner when her cione went out.

I think she meant to help her. I’m sorry, but I haven’t had a chance to talk to Arya yet.

I shook my head quietly.

As Shione’s complexion darkened, she drank her wine all at once.

After I saw that she started looking at Leona from afar again, I turned my attention away from my frustrated master.

‘Well, I’ll take care of myself.’

Originally, when people drink alcohol, they become bold, so you should be able to do well.

I’m just thinking about how to convey Siabelle’s words to Arya.

I walked cautiously to Arya Allenar.

The chilly atmosphere, as if embracing the bitter chill of the north, and the sharp smelting eyes.

They were all elements that made viewers feel awkward and difficult to deal with.

I pretended to be as calm as possible and spoke to Arya.

“Are you Aria Allenar?”

Her gaze, looking around the busy banquet hall, was focused on me.

Could it be that he has a reticent personality?

She didn’t open her mouth, checked my face and outfit, and greeted me with just a nod of her head.

It was only after she decapitated herself with a sip of wine that I could hear Arya’s voice.

“What happened?”

Dry voice. However, there was a definite charm and charisma in that husky voice. They say that a person’s personality is reflected in their voice.

What would happen if I delivered those radical words of Siabelle to a woman whose voice was as cold as mine?

The back of my neck is already pulling.

“Siabelle Cianella to Aria Allenar, who will be participating in the princess’ coming-of-age ceremony—”

“Aria.”

“Yes… ?”

“Call me Aria.”

To suddenly cut off my words and ask them to call me by my first name without my last name?

I don’t know what her intentions are hiding under that cold expression, looking at Arya’s face.

She shrugged her shoulders as she rustled her gray hair.

“I don’t like long words for no reason, and you’re too lazy to talk. It means you can omit the last name.”

Well, if that’s the case.

I lightly bowed my head.

“Thank you for your consideration.”

“Okay, keep your head up and go on with what you were trying to say. It seems that Siabelle’s name came up.”

“That is… Shea Belcia Nella has commanded Aria Alenar to speak on her behalf.”

“Hmm.”

Arya frowned upon hearing Siabelle’s name.

… I’m sure Siabelle said with her own mouth that she was close with Arya. Is it really okay to be friendly?

As soon as Sia Belle’s name came out, she didn’t know that her expression, which seemed to be calm forever, would distort.

I asked as carefully as possible.

“… Do you have a personal relationship with Siabelle-sama?”

“If it’s a close friend. She lived in the same dormitory at the academy, so you can say she’s close.”

I am currently on leave of absence and staying at the estate, but before I was sold to Count Cianella, Siabelle was an academy cadet.

It seems that Arya and I made a connection at the academy.

I let out a sigh of relief at her words.

‘Because they said they even shared a dormitory.’

Siabelle’s message was more like ridicule and teasing than a normal greeting.

Somehow, going to the academy together wasn’t enough, because the two of them must have been seeing each other before going to bed.

If you’re close enough, you’ll probably be able to get past Siabelle’s taunts and jokes.

“Yeah, if I tell her instead… It must be that you will convey her words directly, not through a letter.”

“… That’s right.”

“It wasn’t that the b*tch who cared for her self-image was entrusted with her letters, but that she was entrusted with messages herself. There’s a lot going on. Yeah, what did Siabelle say?”

I quickly shook my head.

After all, I didn’t think it would be a very good choice to tell Sia Belle what she said.

I removed all unnecessary elements from her words and conveyed her meaning.

“She stood up to Siabelle and said that since she had reached the level of a sword expert, she wanted to share her sword with Aria-sama again.”

“No, no. There’s no way that b*tch could have spoken to me so politely.”

“That means… ….”

“There will be no disadvantages to you. Sia Belle, let her blow what the b*tch said.”

“Would you mind doing that?”

“Of course.”

… Arya is not a normal person either.

She’s not even a pervert, but she’s willing to listen to my swear words.

He said that there would be no disadvantages to me anyway, so I pulled out a word from my memory without fail.

“… Aria, unlike you, who has always been in that state, to the extent that he has reached the level of a sword expert.”

Arya Allenar, who heard me, laughed as if it were ridiculous.

“The spearman in the north who was wasting his time beating a bear that came down to the manor on a fictitious day… Grab my toothpick for her and come down to Countess Cianella’s house and share the sword with me.”

Then, Aria’s expression hardened at Siabelle’s message.

Before I came, Shione was famous for swearing at my servant like that….

After all, there was a reason for everything.

Since my older sister, she’s been saying things that care about people like this.

Her older sister and younger sister would be the perfect words.

I recited Siabelle’s last message.

“… My own aria told me to be considerate of your light toothpick so it doesn’t break.”

At the last word, Arya’s expression crumpled.

The emotions engraved on my expression were displeasure and annoyance.

Said Arya, nervously brushing her own gray hair.

“… Year to rot. You don’t even know how ferocious the northern bears are. Besides what? Is my spear a toothpick?”

Her first impression is that Aria, who was so reticent, now immerses herself in a world of her own and starts muttering to herself.

As expected, the topic is cursing at Siabelle.

She seemed to have fallen for Siabelle’s provocation.

“Awesome….”

“I… Are you okay?”

“This has not happened once or twice. It’s okay, it’s not okay… Oh yeah… !”

She gritted her molars and raised the corners of her mouth.

“What is your name?”

“This is Ray.”

“Yes, Ray. Can you convey my words to Siabelle?”

What the hell is Aria trying to say that she can show such a mischievous smile?

I didn’t want to get involved in something tiring for no reason, so I wanted to refuse it like a chimney.

As for the atmosphere, she looks at Arya as if she had to convey it.

She was in no position to refuse, so she finally agreed.

Then Arya continued her words as if she had been waiting for that answer.

“This winter. The spearman of the north will go to smash the knight b*tch who used to wield swords every day. Just like you said, be ready to burst into my hand like a northern bear coming down to the territory.”

“That… Do I dare to tell Siabelle-sama that?”

“What are you worried about? Didn’t you already tell me about Siabelle’s words? It’s between me and Siabelle, so don’t worry and tell me coolly.”

As Arya said that, the banquet hall door opened again.

“Ainel Cianella, the head of Count Cianella’s family, who has stepped into the realm of a sword master, is entering!”

As soon as the belated Ainel entered the banquet hall.

Arya took a quick look at Ainel and said.

“Then, Ray, let’s see it again when the cold winter arrives in Cianella’s estate.”

Having said that, Aria moved to her seat without hesitation while drinking the wine left in her glass.

I looked at her back for a moment and then she went to Ainel.

Eye Nell, who confirmed my appearance, asked her, looking around her immediately.

“Ray, what happened to Sione?”

From noble mtl dot com

“If you are Shione-nim, you can talk with Leona Lefilia-nim….”

No matter how much you say Shione, by now you should be talking with Leona using her words.

I looked around the place where Leona was.

But.

“Huh?”

Leona’s side was full of other ladies besides Shione.

I looked back at the place where I saw Sione earlier, wondering what this was all about.

“Heeep!”

I could see Shione hiccuping in a corner of the banquet hall.

Apparently, she couldn’t talk to Leona about her, so she just drank wine.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her focus was occasionally unfocused.

Anyone can see that she is drunk.

“Heeuk… Boo… ….”

He was complaining about his unstoppable hiccups and drinking another glass of wine.

Even so, it is true that he keeps an eye on Leona little by little.

What would be good if Leona and her talked like that.

As soon as I confirmed Shione’s appearance, I told my child Nel to get rid of the ground and bowed her head.

“Sorry.”

Ainel could only see her heavy sigh at her daughter.

* * *

Even if I stay in the banquet hall any longer, I don’t think proper social activities will be possible.

Even if you talk, you can’t predict what will happen when you’re drunk.

Ainel ordered Sione to be taken to her lodgings.

To see me drunk at a banquet I came to correct my rumors.

It’s a good thing she doesn’t look too bad thanks to her quietly sipping in the corner at least.

What should I do with this unanswered master?

Fortunately, this banquet will continue for several more days.

About the fact that there is still a chance to make up for it.

With the idea that he was a master with many flaws in many ways, he succeeded in leading Shione back to her dorm.

“Oooh… ….”

“Haa… ….”

Maybe it was because I drank wine without knowing how much I drank.

Shione made a sweet face at her headache.

I’m going to leave immediately after taking out her clothes to change into anyway.

Leaving the door open, she went inside and sat Sione on her bed.

“Please sit down. You can’t sleep in a dress, so I’ll have Sir Sione bring out her clothes for her to change into.”

“… Thank you.”

After lightly nodding her head at Shione’s words, she was taking out Shione’s clothes that she had previously stocked in her closet.

Kiki. Bang.

I heard the door closing.

Click.

I even heard the sound of locking the door so that no one could come in from outside.

I looked back and wondered what the hell was going on.

“Shione?”

My master, who should be complaining of a headache while sitting on the bed.

He was quietly staring at me in front of the tightly closed door.
